Third Person?
5 months ago
What do you guys think of a CYOA being written in third person? I know that we're typically used to second person CYOAs, but I feel like it doesn't really work if you want to give the MC some sort of personality. I mean, you can, but it feels awkward to me since I'm imposing a personality onto the reader who is essentially the MC of the story. The same goes for writing in first person. We can be in the head of the MC while also making decisions for them.

There's stories here with first-person, second-person, and third-person viewpoints. There's even a bunch that shift around from one to the other, perhaps unintentionally.

I think it might be a good idea to read some of the stories here before making assumptions about second person being limiting that way. But yes, as Ogre said, other POVs have been done.
I don't personally care for third person, it feels too distancing.
